How to make the pistachio pancakes recipe

1. Combine the egg and milk in a bowl and mix quickly.
2. Stir in the two flours and the baking powder and mix everything with a whisk until you get a smooth and rather thick batter.
3. Heat a non-stick pan and lightly butter it. Form piles of dough with the help of a spoon until you get pancakes of the size you prefer. We advise you to stay on 10 cm.
4. Let them cook over medium heat and when you see that bubbles begin to form on the surface it is time to turn them with the help of a spatula. Continue cooking on the other side as well for a few minutes.
5. As they are ready, arrange them one on top of the other on a plate, placing a teaspoon of pistachio cream between each.
6. Serve garnished with grains while they are still hot.
